An overview of the Airbnb community in Leipzig

On Airbnb, mainly individuals — home sharers — who travel regularly for business or privately, temporarily offer their homes for travelers. When travelers stay with home sharers while they are visiting a city, the living space is used more efficiently. In addition, traditional hospitality providers such as bed & breakfasts, boutique hotels and serviced apartments also use the Airbnb platform to offer year-round accommodation.
